Let A be a UFD and I be an ideal of A. We study the elasticity of atomic domains of the form A+XI [X ]. We prove this elasticity to be ÿnite if and only if I is a product of incomparable prime ideals where at most one of them is nonprincipal, then we provide an explicit computation in the ÿnite case

✦ Synopsis
Let A be a Dedekind domain and I be an ideal of A. We investigate the elasticity of integral domains of the form R = A + XI [X ]. Namely, when the ideal class group of A is inÿnite, we show that the elasticity of R is inÿnite, and when this group is ÿnite, we bound from below and above the elasticity of R using the number of prime ideals in the factorization of I and some Davenport-type constants. We derive the exact value of the elasticity in some special cases.

Given a subset X of a Dedekind domain D, and a polynomial F # D[x], the fixed divisor d(X, F) of F over X is defined to be the ideal in D generated by the elements F(a), a # X. In this paper we derive a simple expression for d(X, F) explicitly in terms of the coefficients of F, using a generalized n
